Angle Developments/Notes:
1. Gorilla Monsoon hosts the WWF Update segment. He talks about Lex Luger getting the first shot at WWF World Champion Yokozuna at WrestleMania X. Bret Hart will get the second shot but will wrestle Owen Hart at the event as well. We are reminded of what happened at the Royal Rumble between Bret and Owen. Owen Hart shares some of his comments about Bret Hart. Owen asks what will it mean for him when he beats Bret Hart at WrestleMania. He is knows he is going to just that. This isn’t going to be a fluke when Owen beats Bret!

Final Thoughts:
Not a whole lot happening on this edition of Superstars. The featured match was sub-par and there wasn’t anything all that entertaining or important on the program. So, this one gets a thumbs down from me.
Thanks for reading.
